Rifle Talk: Auto vs Revolver Reliability in Storage
A late Rifleman piece compares automatic pistols and revolvers for reliability when stored for months or years. It notes springs and firing-pin retractors may resist discharge if dropped, warns of jam risks from long neglect, and cites a Winchester friend’s yearlong loaded .45 test and a stuck .22 Hi Standard. It concludes Colt 45 auto and Colt 38s as reliable autos, with revolvers offering no clear edge.
